Disney Channel celebrated Cameron Boyce’s life in a very special way, with a touching video tribute that aired at the end of the channel’s recent release of “Descendants 3.” The 20-year-old actor passed away earlier last month on July 6 due to an “unexpected death in epilepsy.” His passing left not only his family but his […]

The two-minute and thirty-second video begins with old clips of Cameron doing interviews for his past shows on Disney Channel and then moves into interviews from past co-stars sharing their love for the late actor. This is then followed by hilarious bloopers of the actor on the set of multiple productions on the channel breaking character and bursting into laughter.

The video also includes a lot of outtakes and scenes of Boyce on set with his Descendants co-stars. One special moment included in the tribute shows Boyce with the past First Lady, Michelle Obama. In the clip, Boyce is doing a scene with Michelle when they break character and he makes her laugh, which he finds great pride in.

As the video progresses, it also includes text that appears in between its clips. At the end of the video, this same text transforms to read “you mean everything to us.” This plays right before a second sequence that offers viewers advice on how to deal with the emotions that come with loss.

Out of respect for Boyce’s family and loved ones, the cable channel canceled the “Descendants 3” red carpet premiere and instead, The Walt Disney Company made a donation to the Thirst Project, an organization Cameron was deeply committed to. Additionally, with permission from Boyce’s family, the telecast of “Descendants 3” was dedicated in his memory.

Earlier this month, the Disney Channel “Descendants” star Cameron Boyce passed away due to an “unexpected death in epilepsy.” Following his passing, his past castmates and close friends paid tribute to the star on social media. Yesterday, Boyce’s “Descendants” castmates Dove Cameron, Sofia Carson, Booboo Stewart and the film’s director Kenny Ortega did their first interview […]

The film’s stars and director spoke about Boyce on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” where they remembered the later actor fondly, especially for his kindness toward others. “Even when he was around, he’s the hardest person to put into words, you know — sorry,” Cameron said, fighting back tears.

“If you could bottle up happiness, that was Cam,” Carson added in a remote interview from Canada. “He was pure happiness and pure joy. There will never be any words to describe the pain and how much we miss him. And not much helps except knowing that he lived life with more happiness than anyone I’ve ever known.”

Booboo Stewart shared his struggles processing Boyce’s death, saying: “This was the first time I’ve ever dealt with anything like this,” he said. “They said just to be OK with any thought that you have.”

Kenny Ortega described the loss of Boyce “as tough as it gets.” Even though the conversation was grim, Ortega also went on to share his fond memories of the late actor, including his ability to light up a room with his personality. “Even when he was standing still, he was bioluminescent,” Ortega said. “He was lit from the inside, out.”

During the interview, the actors shared their final conversations with Boyce, who they had planned to reunite with on the “Descendants 3” press tour. “It was pretty normal,” Cameron recalled. “We all expected to see each other a lot more.”

“Descendants 3” is set to premiere on Disney Channel tonight, August 2, 2019 at 8 p.m. EST.

After the recent death of Cameron Boyce, Disney has decided that the company will be canceling its “Descendants 3” red carpet event in respects to the late actor. Instead, Disney will be donating to a charity close to Boyce in his honor.

“We’re proud to be part of Cameron Boyce’s legacy by showcasing his talents on screen but we are canceling the red carpet premiere event for ‘Descendants 3’ and instead, The Walt Disney Company will make a donation to the Thirst Project, a philanthropic organization to which Cameron was deeply committed,” Disney told Page Six in a statement on Thursday.

The Thirst Project is a nonprofit organization that helps deliver clean water to communities around the world. Boyce worked with the organization in the past and in total, has raised more than $30,000 for the charity.

In addition to the cancelation of the red carpet event and donation to the Thirst Project, the company is also planning to dedicate the telecast of “Descendants 3” in Cameron’s memory. As per a statement by Disney, the company had reached out to the family for permission prior to making the official announcement.

Cameron had appeared in all three of the “Descendants” films on Disney Channel. The late actor played the role of Carlos, Cruella De Ville’s son.

Boyce passed away on July 6 due to a seizure brought on by epilepsy, a condition he reportedly had been dealing with for some time. Boyce’s roommate found him unresponsive on July 6 and after paramedics arrived and were unable to revive him, Boyce was pronounced dead on the scene at 2:35 p.m. Boyce’s passing is considered a “natural death,” according to law enforcement.

Even though the seizure that led to Boyce’s death is reportedly connected to his epilepsy, the actor’s official cause of death is still unknown and remains under investigation.

Disney star Cameron Boyce, who passed away on Saturday due to a seizure, reportedly suffered from epilepsy. Boyce was 20 years old.

TMZ reports that Boyce had been experiencing epileptic seizures, which ultimately led to his untimely death. Boyce’s roommate found him unresponsive on July 6, and after paramedics arrived and were unable to revive him, Boyce was pronounced dead on the scene at 2:35 p.m. Still, Boyce’s passing is considered a “natural death,” according to law enforcement. Even though Boyce passed away so tragically young, his death is still considered a natural one, as the term “natural” refers to the conditions in the body which result in death.

Even though the seizure that led to Boyce’s death is reportedly connected to his epilepsy, the actor’s official cause of death is still unknown and remains under investigation.

“An autopsy was performed today and a cause of death was deferred pending further investigation,” the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner announced in a press release.

As we previously reported, ABC News first announced Boyce’s passing early Sunday morning. “It is with a profoundly heavy heart that we report that this morning we lost Cameron. He passed away in his sleep due to a seizure which was a result of an ongoing medical condition for which he was being treated. The world is now undoubtedly without one of its brightest lights, but his spirit will live on through the kindness and compassion of all who knew and loved him,” stated a spokesperson on behalf of the Boyce family.

The actor starred in numerous films and television shows from a young age, including his most recent film, “Descendants 3,” set to premiere on August 2. Fans and celebrities have taken to social media to express their condolences and sorrow following Boyce’s passing, including Adam Sandler, who played Boyce’s father in the “Grown-Ups” films.

The Disney Villains and their conniving kids are back, and they’re shaking things up. Disney just debuted the first official trailer for “Descendants 3,” and it looks like this film will be the most wicked yet.

The all-new trailer premiered on Sunday during the Radio Disney Celebration (known as the ARDYs), and it’s all Disney Channel fans have been talking about since. In the trailer, we finally get a look at Hades, some of the other Disney Villains (including an epic shot of Maleficent in dragon form), and of course the Villain kids…both good and bad. The third film unfolds on VK Day (a day celebrating, you guessed it, the Villain Kids) as Mal, Evie, Carlos, and Jay cross the barrier and return to the Isle of the Lost to bring four deserving Disney Villains’ kids to Auradon Prep so they can have a shot at a good, opportunity-filled life. But of course, it wouldn’t be a “Descendants” film without some challenges and conflicts. While Mal and the others are afraid that they will be threatened by Uma and Hades (and Mal even contemplates closing the barrier for good), they are unaware of the true doom that may be upon them, from pirates to dragons to villains we haven’t even seen yet.

We already saw Uma return in the teaser trailer released earlier this year, looking as maniacal as ever. But by the looks of this new full-length preview, things are about to get even more frightfully fun in the third film. Take a look at the official trailer below and see for yourself what Disney has in store for “Descendants 3”:

We can’t wait to find out more about what’s to come in the second “Descendants” sequel, but we’re not sure if we’re more excited to meet the new villains or find out whether Mal will actually become queen (and seal the barrier). We’ll have to wait until the movie comes out to see what happens, but we already couldn’t be more excited to find out. “Descendants 3” premieres on Disney Channel this summer on August 2.

The highly anticipated Descendants 3 coming to the Disney Channel and DisneyNOW will be released on Friday, August 2 at 8 p.m. The hit Disney Channel movie stars Dove Cameron as Mal the daughter of Maleficent along with Sofia Carson as Evie the daughter of the Evil Queen, Cameron Boyce as Carlos the son of […]

The highly anticipated Descendants 3 coming to the Disney Channel and DisneyNOW will be released on Friday, August 2 at 8 p.m. The hit Disney Channel movie stars Dove Cameron as Mal the daughter of Maleficent along with Sofia Carson as Evie the daughter of the Evil Queen, Cameron Boyce as Carlos the son of Cruella De Vil, and Booboo Steward as Jay the son of Jafar.

In Descendants 3, the four Villain Kids cross the barrier and return to the Isle of the Lost so they can bring back four more Villain Kids who deserve a fresh start too. As you can see from the new music video The VKs (Villian Kids) apply for the opportunity to join Mal, Evie, Carlos and Jay at Auradon Prep. Check out the video which also serves as the new movies opening scene.

We already know that Ursula’s daughter Uma (played by China Anne McClain) is back with a vengeance, picking up right where she left off in “Descendants 2.” Uma shared in a previously released trailer that while Mal and the rest of her friends were celebrating their new life in Auradon, Uma has been plotting her revenge. It appears she and Hades (played by Cheyenne Jackson) have joined forces to destroy Auradon.

All of these elements come together in another epic showdown between good and evil. How it will this confrontation play out? Will Auradon be saved, will the new VKs get a new life on Auradon or will Uma prevail this time? Of course to answer those questions you have to wait for the release of the movie on August 2nd.

Descendants 3 is directed by the newly announced Disney Legend Kenny Ortega. He also choreographed Descendants 3 with Jamal Sims. Disney also released a behind the scenes video of the new “Good to Be Bad” music video here.

Descendants 3 is the biggest Disney movie to come to the small screen in 2019.

How do you think it compares to some of the big productions coming to the Big Screen this year? Let us know in the comments below.

Disney Channel fans are eagerly awaiting “Descendants 3,” which premieres this summer, and this week we’ve gotten a new peek at the upcoming TV movie.

A new trailer debuted during “Good Morning America” on Friday, April 5, and by the looks of it, the citizens of Auradon are in a lot of trouble. A “great evil” is descending on the realm, causing people to fall under a sleeping spell. Hades (played by Cheyenne Jackson) wields a powerful “ember,” which just might be the key to stopping the chaos. Take a look at the new trailer below.

In addition to Hades, “Descendants 3” introduces other Disney Villains, too. In this new installment, we meet Dr. Facilier (Jamal Sims) from “The Princess and the Frog” and his daughter, Celia (Jadah Marie). Thanks to POPSUGAR, we have a closer look at these two new characters and their amazing costumes.

“She is a daddy’s girl,” Marie told POPSUGAR. “As you can see in her wardrobe, she’s literally copying her dad from the top of her hat to the bottom of her feet. She is Dr. Facilier’s daughter.”

Here’s the official synopsis of “Descendants 3”:

Mal, Evie, Carlos, and Jay return to the Isle of the Lost to recruit a new batch of villainous offspring to join them at Auradon Prep. When a barrier breach jeopardizes the safety of Auradon during their departure off the Isle, Mal resolves to permanently close the barrier, fearing that nemeses Uma and Hades will wreak vengeance on the kingdom. Despite her decision, an unfathomable dark force threatens the people of Auradon, and it’s up to Mal and the VKs to save everyone in their most epic battle yet.

“Descendants 3” will be the biggest in scope of all the previous movies,” director Kenny Ortega told Entertainment Weekly. “Everything has been scaled to deliver an epic story. The characters, the sets, the costumes, the dance numbers are all bigger, better and the baddest!”

To the delight of Descendants fans eagerly awaiting “Descendants 3” this summer, Disney released new details and trailer for the upcoming Disney Channel movie. “Descendants 3” features the characters you know and love returning to the Isle of the Lost to recruit a new batch of villainous offspring to join them at Auradon Prep.
